Maybe so. According to Juan Cole, the bombing of the Askariyah shrine in Samarra has triggered momentous events in Iraq. Iraq, not a terribly stable place, barely under U.S. military control, and after Saddam, a seething cauldron of religious hatred, looks set for a volcanic eruption of violence:
They told B. how the demolition was carried out. You see, it was nothing like a hipshot sneaking up bombing by night. It was meticulous, skilful piece of work, taking a lot of time, the guards knowing all about what was going on. At least that´s what they told him today.
So now they all gather downtown Nejef rallying, preparing a gruesome revenge. Sistani tries hard to stop them, they told him, but the boys won´t listen. They´re heading for Samarra. '
